10-30 is thicker, you dont want to use that for winter.
use 5-30

5w-30...mobil one synthetic

 

5w 30 will be good for the winter.

 

According to your owner's manual, 5W30 is preferred at all temperatures.

If you don't have an owner's manual, you can buy one here. It's an important part of any car.

 

Why not consider going synthetic?

 

i seen some stufff castrol 5w 20 synthetic what u guys think about this oil

 

thanx guys .. ur help is much appreciated

 

synthetic oil if finer and has chemicals which cleans the crankcase. if you have an older motor, like mine which has 140k miles, i dont want to take the risk of damaging a seal. some people say it wont hurt but ive seen it cause leaks many times.
5w-30 castrol gtx -- all year round
